About international schools in Greece

American-curriculum international schools in Greece typically deliver English-medium, US-style programmes that use grade levels and standards similar to schools in the United States and often offer Advanced Placement (AP) or other US credit-bearing courses alongside university-preparatory pathways. These schools are concentrated in Athens and Thessaloniki and serve a mix of expatriate and local families, with Greek language lessons frequently taught as a second language and some schools offering bilingual or dual-track options. Annual published tuition for international schools in Greece most commonly falls in a mid-range band; many Athens schools show fees roughly between €7,000 and €16,000 and may add one-off registration charges and extra costs for transport, meals and activities. Admissions are handled by each school’s admissions office and commonly include an application form, school reports and language or placement assessments; some schools operate rolling admissions while others use set deadlines that align to the September school year.

FAQs for Greece

How does an American curriculum school in Greece differ from a British or IB school?
An American-curriculum school follows US-style grade levels and standards, and often structures high-school study around credit accumulation and optional AP courses or a US diploma pathway. Some American schools also offer the IB Diploma or other international programmes as an alternative, so parents should check each school’s upper-school options and assessment routes.
What should I expect to pay for tuition and extra costs?
Published tuition at international schools in Greece varies, but many Athens schools publish annual fees in a range from about €7,000 to €16,000, with an average commonly reported near €10 - 12k; this typically covers core teaching and basic school services. Parents should budget additionally for one-off registration/enrolment fees, school transport, meals, uniforms and extracurriculars, all of which are commonly charged separately.
When should we apply and what documents or tests are usually required?
Application timing varies by school but most international schools manage admissions through their own offices and offer a mix of rolling places and set deadlines tied to the September start; it’s advisable to apply several months before the intended start date. Typical requirements include an application form, recent school reports or transcripts, proof of identity/residency and an English-language or placement assessment for students whose first language is not English.
What practical factors should relocating families check when comparing American schools in Greece?
Look for clear details on the language of instruction, whether the school offers the specific high-school diploma or AP/IB options you want, and how graduates are supported with university counselling and external examinations. Also check published fee schedules and what is included, pastoral and special-educational support, accreditation or membership of recognised international school bodies, and practical services such as school transport and the admissions timeline.
